Dear Apartment 201, I am so sorry it didn’t work out, my dear. I am so saddened by the news. People can be so disappointing. I hope you don’t hold this against me, and we can still be friends. Sincerely sorry, Anna Apartment 203

Hey lady, I stand by my work. There must be some misunderstanding. I’ll check it out and fix the problem.
Hey Anna, don’t you worry. I’m going to make it right.
